Researchers have demonstrated that both deprivation and satiation can affect the outcome of preference assessments for food. In the current study, paired-stimulus preference assessments for tangible items were conducted under three conditions: control, deprivation, and satiation. Three persons with developmental disabilities and 3 typically developing preschool children served as participants. The results demonstrated that deprivation and satiation influenced the outcome of preference assessments of leisure items or toys.

Purpose: Amphetamine (AMPH) increases locomotor activities in animals, and the locomotor response to AMPH is further modulated by caloric deficits such as food deprivation and restriction. The increment in locomotor activity regulated by AMPH-caloric deficit concomitance can be further modulated by varying feeding schedules (e.g.

Stunting among children is a reflection of the chronic malnutrition caused by a complex set of behavioural, demographic, and socioeconomic factors. This long-term detrimental exposure to chronic malnutrition is disproportionately higher among social and economically deprived groups, leading to significant differentials in the prevalence of stunting across various social strata. Therefore, this study investigates the inequality of social groups in terms of the prevalence of stunting across Schedule Caste (SC)-Scheduled Tribe (ST) and non-SC-ST.

Article Synopsis
  • The study examined how starvation and refeeding impact the growth and food intake of gilthead seabream and seabass, as well as the growth of glasswort, in a 75-day aquaponic system with a salt concentration of 12 ppt.
  • Nine aquaponic setups were tested with varying feeding schedules: a control group fed daily, a 4-day fasting group, and a 7-day fasting group.
  • Results indicated that while 4 days of fasting allowed fish to achieve near control growth levels, the 7-day fasting significantly hindered growth; however, it positively influenced the growth of glasswort compared to the control.

Histamine H3 receptor activation in the insular cortex during taste memory conditioning decreases appetitive response but accelerates aversive memory extinction under an ad libitum liquid regimen.

Conditioned taste aversion (CTA) is a robust associative learning; liquid deprivation during this conditioning allows researchers to obtain readable measures of associative learning. Recent research suggests that thirst could be a crucial motivator that modulates conditioning and memory extinction processes, highlighting the importance of the body's internal state during learning. Furthermore, the histaminergic system is one of the major modulatory systems controlling several behavioral and neurobiological functions, such as feeding, water intake, and nociception.

Background: In this study, we investigated the effects of swimming activity and feed restriction on digestion and antioxidant enzyme activities in juvenile rainbow trout (average body weight of 26.54 ± 0.36 g).
